Help is a chatbot away


Bridging the gap: Firzana (top right) sharing her inspiration for developing the Lapor Predator chatbot.

PETALING JAYA: Victims of online child sexual exploitation and abuse can now seek help from Malaysia’s first chatbot Lapor Predator to lodge reports against sexual predators.Lapor Predator is designed by youth organisation Monsters Among Us (MAU) which works towards encouraging Internet users, primarily survivors and witnesses of such exploitation and abuse, to come forward and highlight the cases.

They can report the cases on the chatbot at www.laporpredator.orgFor now, Lapor Predator is only available on web browsers, but MAU plans to expand it to messaging platforms.
